Clients & What They Say About Us

Shanie is fantastic. She is accomodating, flexible, and super creative. I would recommend her to anyone!

Riva Preil

PT, DPT, BCB-PMD, CLT

“My son Touvia invented a great card game which we decided to print out and market by ourselves. Shanie designed the box in a very professional way. She knew how to apply Touvia’s ideas as well as added her own so that we have in fact to designs one on each side of the box and they both looks great! We were very happy with Shanie’s work and the price reflected how much she and her children liked the game as well. Thank you Shanie, me and my son we definitely recommend you as a great illustrator and a graphic designer.”

She’s a top notch talent who brings the passion of a dedicated fan into her process. I cannot overstate how rare and valuable that is.”

About the Virtual Paintbrush

I am a graphic designer who loves books as much as you do.

When you write a book, you put yourself into it. The last thing you want is for people to overlook your book because of bad design. Everyone judges books by their covers, and here at the Virtual Paintbrush, I understand how to design book covers that will not only make your book stand out and look professional, but allow readers a glimpse into the soul of the book.

My name is Shanie Cooper, and I am an Israel-based graphic designer with over 15 years of experience in the industry, both teaching and designing. I have serviced clients all over the world, and have worked with small businesses, large corporations, independent authors, and small and large publishers. My passion is book covers and children’s book design. I look forward to working together!
